Summer is coming to much of the world, so isn't it about time we heated things up for our favorite nations?
This would be a hell of a lot of work for me, so I want to get some input from the community before charging forward. How interested would you all be in a summer Gertalia fic and art exchange?
Basically I'm thinking that interested people would sign up like so.
LJ username:
email address:
age:
Are you opposed to writing, drawing or receiving smut?: (Note: nobody under 18 will be allowed to do either. I'm sorry, guys. It's not that I don't think there are mature high school students who aren't already reading and writing this, but I don't want to get my butt kicked by LJ or the law or somebody's angry parents ^^;.
A list of 2-5 prompts/scenarios/quotes for the fic you'd like to receive: This could be anything from "Germany and Veneziano go on a picnic" to "a fic based around N. Italy's "Let's Boil Hot Water!" song, or "Germany and N. Italy get married and France and Prussia conspire to ruin the wedding."
Any specific plot elements, side characters or kinks you'd like to see included?: This could be something like "please let Germany and N. Italy's picnic go terribly wrong," "Please let France make a brief appearance" or kinks like bloodplay, sex with a blindfold on, spanking, etc.
Any kinks, plot elements or side characters you DON'T want to write or draw?: Pretty self explanatory: No bloodplay, no angst, no fluff, Please don't let France or Russia appear!
Anything else you'd be willing to write or draw?:
Any kinks, plot elements or side characters you won't write or draw: I.e. I won't draw/write smut, fluff or anything with France (sorry we're picking on you, France. We love you, I'm just using you as an example!)
Would you be willing to pinch-hit if needed?: This is pretty self-explanatory, I think.
I'm thinking that I'd open sign ups on Monday and leave them open 'til June 1. Assignments would then go out by June 15 and fics would be due July 20. Posting would go throughout late July and August, with the reveals of authors/artists happening in September.
Because I'm just one person who has two full-time jobs, I'm thinking of limiting this to 50 participants, but that may not be an issue given who signs up.
So, what do you think, guys and gals? This is the first time I've ever thought of running an exchange, so any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
Also, a reply saying you'd be interested isn't any kind of commitment to participating! If I get enough interest, there will be a later post for that.
discussion,
fic exchange,
mod post!
